I tried for lent one year, just giving money to anyone who asked, but I ended up feeling that even though it was a mostly-negligable expense (and I think it was much more like once or twice a week rather than once or twice a month) it didn't seem to be achieving much positive, and might have been encouraging things I disapproved of.

Halacha isn't a consequentialist system.

I'm not sure that the embarrassed middle class 'I'll buy you an x' shuffle achieves much positive either.
